What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role where I can leverage my marketing skills to drive brand engagement and contribute to innovative campaigns.

As a creative and detail-oriented marketing professional with over 4 years of experience, I have honed my skills in retail, visual merchandising, copywriting, and digital content creation. My ability to translate customer insights into compelling brand messaging has allowed me to develop visually engaging campaigns that resonate across both in-store and digital platforms. I thrive in collaborative environments, working cross-functionally to execute marketing strategies that enhance brand presence and drive customer engagement.

Throughout my career, I have successfully contributed to various roles, including Assistant Merchandiser at Jockey International, where I collaborated with design and cross-functional teams to align seasonal plans with financial goals. My experience as a Freelance Packaging Coordinator and Junior Copywriter has further strengthened my capabilities in product storytelling and marketing execution. I am passionate about creating impactful marketing strategies that not only meet business objectives but also foster strong customer relationships.
